The six Western Balkan countries will not be able to join the EU unless they reinforce the rule of law and resolve problems with neighbours.
The report that the EU considers credible perspective for enlargement, underlines that Balkan countries must remove elements that capture the state, ties with organized crime and corruption in all levels, and a mix of private and public interests.
The EU requires an independent and reinforced judiciary, with corruption and organized crime considered as very essential.
Political dialogue in Parliament is indispensable, including the necessity for the government to offer the opposition all possibilities to make its role so that the opposition can get involved in democratic processes in a constructive way. The elections should be free and fair.
An obligatory request of the EU is reconciliation and good neighbouring since the EU will not import destabilization and disagreements.
This signal is more specifically for Serbia and Kosovo: “The final solutions should be found before a country joins”, the strategy says.
